We work under an all-inclusive, anti-speciesist and intersectional
framework. We believe fair labor practices, immigration, mass incarceration,
non-human animal liberation, education, and health are not only related, but
dependent on each other for sustainable and effective solutions.

In a time when people of color face immense disparities in health,
education, and income, as well as threats from a heartless administration,
it’s understandable why so many of us struggle to lead or engage in
activism. The Latin American community makes up nearly 18% of the US
population, or 58 million people, but remain an even smaller, visible
fraction of the liberation movement.

La Raza for Liberation was created by people of Latin American descent,
for people of Latin American descent, in the US and Mexico.

We reject the idea that all Latin Americans are Mexican, or that all
Latin Americans come from the exact same culture and have the exact same
needs and experiences. We are a diverse people, and our work should reflect
that. Communication and collaboration are key values to our organization,
because in our intent to represent the whole, we must listen to and respect
each part.

It is our mission to educate and empower our communities in our fight for
liberation in a way that is relatable, accessible, and historically
accurate. Our goals are to increase the leadership and visibility of Latinxs
and Natives working to dismantle oppressive systems, and support these
groups and individuals by sharing and providing various resources and
platforms.
